MEDWISE will present the municipal community-composting experience of Les Masies de Roda during CirBioWaste’s third online training on bio-waste management, taking place on 9 October 2026.
MEDWISE will take part in the third online training on bio-waste management organised by the Interreg Euro-MED project CirBioWaste on 9 October 2026, from 11:00 to 13:15 CEST. Entitled Closing the Loop at the Source through Community Composting, the training will bring together municipalities, experts and other stakeholders to discuss practical approaches to community composting and sustainable bio-waste management.
Representatives from BETA Technological Center, UVic-UCC, will present the session “Community Composting at Municipal Level: the Case of Les Masies de Roda and the MEDWISE Project.” The presentation will focus on the municipal implementation of a decentralised community composting system: how the system is sized and organised, the involvement of local authorities and residents, and the operational and social challenges that shape its day-to-day functioning.
The Les Masies de Roda experience offers a practical case for discussing how community composting can become part of a local waste-management model. MEDWISE builds on this existing system to accompany its operation and monitoring, identify opportunities for improvement and generate knowledge that may be useful for other Mediterranean territories working to strengthen local management of organic waste.
The training will also explore decentralised composting as an approach for treating bio-waste close to where it is generated, followed by a discussion and local-language breakout sessions. The plenary session will be held in English, while selected breakout sessions will be offered in Spanish and Portuguese.
Participation is free of charge, subject to prior registration. Register here. The event agenda is available here.
